The expander 2 is a scroll type fluid machine, and steam with high temperature and high pressure is supplied as a working medium from the steam generator 4 via a working medium passage 12 to the expander 2. The expander 2 drives the power generator 3 with the supplied steam as the working medium so as to generate electric power. Water is supplied from the working medium supply pump 6 via a working medium passage 15 to the steam generator 4. The working medium supply pump 6 sucks water, generated by condensing the steam by the condenser 8, via a working medium passage 17, a working medium tank 25 and a working medium passage 18. The steam discharged from the expander 2 is supplied via a working medium passage 19 to the condenser 8.

In the power generating device 1 configured as the above, the expander 2 exchanges energy of the steam with high temperature and high pressure generated by the steam generator 4 into rotational power so as to drive the power generator 3. The steam discharged from the expander 2 is condensed into the water by the condenser 8, and subsequently supplied to the expander 2 by the steam generator 4 as the steam with high temperature and high pressure again.

The control device 50 includes a CPU, a storage means and the like, and the CPU is a central processing unit and the storage means is a ROM in which control programs, maps and the like are stored and a RAM in which inputted data and the like are stored.

The protective roof 32 is provided above and around the net plate 31. An edge part bended downward is provided at an outer perimeter of the protective roof 32 so as to cover the ceiling of the storage box 22. The edge part is extended downward over a gap between the ceiling and the protective roof 32 so as to prevent invasion of rain and the like from the side. A gap is also provided between an inner perimeter of the edge part and an outer peripheral surface of the storage box 22.

Next, an explanation will be given on arrangement of various devices inside the storage box 22.

The storage box 22 is divided by the partition member 30 into two spaces, that is, the side in which the control device 50 is housed (hereinafter, referred to as “the side of the control device 50”) and the side in which the expander 2 and the power generator 3 is housed (hereinafter, referred to as “the side of the expander 2”). Namely, the partition member 30 is provided upright in a longitudinal middle part of the base 21 and divides the storage box 22 into the two spaces by a plate body, and the front side is set to a housing chamber for the control device 50 and the rear side is set to a housing chamber for the expander 2 and the power generator 3.

In an upper part of the side of the control device 50 in the storage box 22, the control device 50 is arranged.

The blower 35 sends the air, which is sent via the vent hole 33, from the side of the control device 50 to the side of the expander 2, and includes a propeller fan, a sirocco fan or the like for example.

In the storage box 22, in a lower part of the side of the expander 2, the power generator 3 is arranged at the side of the control device 50. The power generator 3 has an input shaft 41, and the input shaft 41 is projected along the horizontal direction and perpendicularly to the longitudinal direction. The power generator 3 is fixed to the frame 27 provided upright on the base 21. In more detail, the power generator 3 has an attachment plate 3 a projected toward the frame 27. The attachment plate 3 a is provided upward and downward from a front side of a center of the power generator 3. A screw hole is provided at an end of the attachment plate 3 a. A power generator attachment plate 27 c is provided laterally between the two vertical frames 27 a of the frame 27. A long hole 27 d as an adjustment part is provided in the power generator attachment plate 27 c. A lengthwise direction of the long hole 27 d is arranged vertically. By inserting a screw into the screw hole of the attachment plate 3 a and the long hole 27 d and fastening, the frame 27 is fixed to the power generator 3. The long hole 27 d is arranged so that the power generator 3 can be fixed above and separately from the base 21 even if the screw is fastened to a lower end of the long hole 27 d.

Accordingly, the power generator 3 can be fixed separately from the base 21. By changing a position of the screw vertically within a vertical length of the long hole 27 d, a vertical position of the power generator 3 can be adjusted so as to control tension of a belt 48 discussed later.

An input pulley 42 is provided on the input shaft 41 of the power generator 3. The input pulley 42 is provided at an end of the input shaft 41, and the belt 48 is wound between the input pulley 42 and an output pulley 47 discussed later.

Above the power generator 3, the expander 2 is arranged. The expander 2 has output shafts 43 for taking out rotational power. The upper and lower two output shafts 43 are provided. A sprocket 45 is provided at a middle part of each of the output shafts 43, and a chain 46 is wound between the sprockets 45, whereby the two output shafts 43 are rotated synchronously. An axial direction of each of the output shafts 43 is in parallel to the input shaft 41 of the power generator 3.

The expander 2 is fixed to the frame 27 provided upright on the base 21. In more detail, the expander 2 has an attachment plate 2 a projected toward the frame 27. The attachment plate 2 a is projected upward and downward from a front side of a center of the expander 2. A screw hole is provided at an end of the attachment plate 2 a. A long hole 27 e as an adjustment part is provided in a rear surface of the lateral frame 27 b. A lengthwise direction of the long hole 27 e is arranged vertically. By inserting a screw into the screw hole of the attachment plate 2 a and the long hole 27 e and fastening, the frame 27 is fixed to the expander 2. The long hole 27 e is arranged so that the expander 2 can be fixed above and separately from the power generator 3 even if the screw is fastened to a lower end of the long hole 27 e. Accordingly, the expander 2 can be fixed above and separately from the base 21 and the power generator 3. By changing a position of the screw vertically within a vertical length of the long hole 27 e, a vertical position of the expander 2 can be adjusted so as to control tension of the belt 48.

The output pulley 47 is provided on the lower output shaft 43 of the expander 2, and the belt 48 is wound between the output pulley 47 and the input pulley 42 of the power generator 3 and connected thereto.

Above the working medium tank 25 and behind the expander 2, the condenser 8 is arranged.

The working medium passage 12 supplying the steam with high temperature and high pressure from the steam generator 4 provided outside the storage box 22 to the expander 2 is provided from an upper part of a side surface of the storage box 22 to a space at the side of the expander 2, and one of ends of the working medium passage 12 is connected to the expander 2.

The working medium passage 19 sending the steam from the expander 2 to the condenser 8 is provided in the space at the side of the expander 2 in the storage box 22, and one of ends of the working medium passage 19 is connected to the expander 2 and the other end thereof is connected to the condenser 8.

The working medium passage 17 supplying the water generated by condensing the steam by the condenser 8 is provided in the space at the side of the expander 2 in the storage box 22, and one of ends of the working medium passage 17 is connected to the condenser 8 and the other end thereof is connected to the working medium tank 25.

The working medium passage 18 sucking the water stored in the working medium tank 25 is provided in the space at the side of the expander 2 in the storage box 22, and one of ends of the working medium passage 18 is connected to the working medium tank 25. The other end thereof is branched, and one of branched ends thereof is connected to the working medium supply pump 6 and the other branched end thereof is connected to a high pressure liquid supply passage 51. The other end of the high pressure liquid supply passage 51 is connected to the center of the expander 2. The high pressure liquid is supplied via the center of the expander 2 to an inside of the expander 2 and used as a lubricative material for the expander 2.

A pipe (not shown) is provided at a front end of the working medium supply pump 6, and the pipe is communicated with the working medium passage 15 at the outside.

As mentioned above, by arranging the expander 2 above the storage box 22, an upper part of the storage box 22 is warmer than a lower part thereof. Accordingly, air in the upper part of the storage box 22 with high temperature and low density is moved upward further and discharged outside via the net plate 31, and in the lower part of the storage box 22 with low temperature, an airflow using so-called chimney effect is generated in which negative pressure is operated and a fluid flows from the ventilation path 21 c of the base 21.

The blower 35 sending air from the side of the control device 50 in the storage box 22 is provided. By the chimney effect, negative pressure is also operated in the space of the side of the control device 50 with lower temperature than the side of the expander 2 so that an airflow by the chimney effect is generated in addition to ventilation by the blower 35, whereby the blower 35 can be configured smaller than the usual.

Next, an explanation will be given on a method controlling the tension of the belt 48 connecting the output pulley 47 of the expander 2 to the input pulley 42 of the power generator 3.

Firstly, the expander 2 is fixed to the lateral frame 27 b at the lower end of the long hole 27 e, and the belt 48 is wound between the output pulley 47 and the input pulley 42. Subsequently, as shown by two-dot lines in FIG. 5, the screw fixing the expander 2 is loosened and the screw is moved to an upper end of the long hole 27 e so as to move the expander 2 upward. Accordingly, the tension of the belt 48 is increased. Then, the screw is fastened again at the moved position of the expander 2 so as to fix the expander 2 to the lateral frame 27 b. According to the configuration, the tension of the belt 48 can be adjusted easily.

Similarly, as shown in FIG. 6, the power generator 3 is fixed to the frame 27 at an upper end of the long hole 27 d, and the belt 48 is wound between the output pulley 47 and the input pulley 42. Subsequently, the screw fixing the power generator 3 is loosened and the screw is moved to the lower end of the long hole 27 d so as to move the power generator 3 downward. Accordingly, the tension of the belt 48 is increased. Then, the screw is fastened again at the moved position of the power generator 3 so as to fix the power generator 3 to the frame 27. According to the configuration, work of adjusting the tension of the belt 48 can be simplified.

When the screw is moved to a middle part of the long hole 27 d and then the power generator 3 is fixed, the power generator 3 is moved downward by weight of the power generator 3, whereby the tension is generated on the belt 48. Accordingly, work of adjusting the tension of the belt 48 can be performed easily.

A screw hole for fixing an expander take-out rail member 61 is provided in the lateral frame 27 b. The expander take-out rail member 61 is detached under normal driving, and when the expander 2 is taken out at the time of maintenance or the like, the expander take-out rail member 61 is fixed to the lateral frame 27 b by a screw.

The expander take-out rail member 61 includes H-section steel and is attached to the lateral frame 27 b so that a lengthwise direction of the expander take-out rail member 61 is in agreement with a horizontal direction of the storage box 22 and in parallel to a lateral direction of the storage box 22. At the time of attachment, a tip of the expander take-out rail member 61 is projected laterally from the storage box 22 so that the expander 2 can be taken out from the storage box 22.

Rail pulleys 62 can be attached to both ends of the upper output shaft 43 of the expander 2. The rail pulleys 62 have fixation parts 62 a fixed to the output shaft 43 and rollers 62 b provided at both sides of the expander take-out rail member 61 so as to pinch the expander take-out rail member 61. The fixation parts 62 a have screw parts 62 c, and a vertical position can be adjusted by rotating the screw parts 62 c. By putting the rollers 62 b on an overhang part, which are provided in a lower side of the expander take-out rail member 61, and rotating the rollers 62 b, the rail pulleys 62 can slid along the expander take-out rail member 61.

When the expander 2 is taken out from the storage box 22, the expander take-out rail member 61 is fixed to the lateral frame 27 b by the screw, and the rail pulleys 62 are slid from an end of the expander take-out rail member 61 along the expander take-out rail member 61. Then, the fixation parts 62 a of the rail pulleys 62 are fixed respectively to both ends of the output shaft 43 of the expander 2. By loosening the screw fixing the frame 27 to the expander 2, the expander 2 is supported while hung via the rail pulleys 62 by the expander take-out rail member 61. By sliding the rail pulleys 62 to an outer side of the storage box 22, the expander 2 is moved toward the storage box 22 while hung.

According to the configuration, the expander 2 can be moved easily to the outer side of the storage box 22, whereby the expander 2 can be maintained efficiently.

As the above, in the power generating device 1, the expander 2 driven by the steam, the power generator 3 connected to and driven by the output shaft 43 of the expander 2, and the control device 50 are mounted on the base 21 and housed in the storage box 22.

The expander 2 and the power generator 3 are fixed to the frame 27 provided upright on the base 21, and the expander 2 and the power generator 3 are separated from the base 21.

According to the configuration, air flows upward from the lower side by the chimney effect, whereby the expander 2, the power generator 3 and the control device 50 can be cooled efficiently. By separating the expander 2 and the power generator 3 from the base 21, a passage in which the air flows is made wider, whereby the expander 2, the power generator 3 and the control device 50 can be cooled efficiently. By separating the expander 2 and the power generator 3 from the base 21, a space for the maintenance of the expander 2 and the power generator 3 is provided, whereby the maintenance can be performed efficiently. Entry of foreign substances such as rain can be prevented so as to improve durability, whereby the maintenance work can be omitted.

The blower 35 sending air from the side of the control device 50 to the side of the expander 2 is provided in the partition member 30.

According to the configuration, the air becomes easy to flow upward from the lower side in the side of the control device 50 in which the chimney effect is low, whereby the expander 2, the power generator 3 and the control device 50 can be cooled further efficiently.

The power generator 3 is arranged below the expander 2. The expander 2 has the output shaft 43 projected horizontally. The power generator 3 has the input shaft 41 projected horizontally. The output shaft 43 and the input shaft 41 are connected by the belt 48.

According to the configuration, by separating the expander 2 and the power generator 3 from the base 21, the space for the maintenance of the expander 2 and the power generator 3 is provided, whereby the maintenance can be performed efficiently. The tension of the belt 48 is generated by weight of the power generator 3, whereby the work of adjusting the tension of the belt 48 can be simplified.

In the attachment part for the expander 2 in the frame 27, the long hole 27 e is provided which can move the expander 2 vertically for a fixed distance.
